Abstract

Production systems engineering (PSE) is an emerging branch of engineering intended to uncover fundamental principles of production systems and utilize them for analysis, continuous improvement, and design. In PSE, manufacturing systems are addressed based on first principles and at the same level of rigor as that in other engineering disciplines. This paper is intended to give a general characterization of PSE and consider, in some details, several PSE problems. Specifically, the problems of performance analysis, bottlenecks, leanness, system-theoretic properties, and transient behavior are addressed. In addition, several case studies are described and the PSE Toolbox, which implements the techniques and algorithms developed, is presented. © 2010 Elsevier Ltd.

Funding

Some of the results described herein and in Li and Meerkov (2009) have been obtained in collaboration with J.-T. Lim, F. Top, D. Jacobs, C.-T. Kuo, S.-Y. Chiang, and E. Enginarlar. To all of them we express our gratitude. Financial support for the research on PSE has been provided, for over 20 years, by the NSF. Without this support, the results reported herein and in Li and Meerkov (2009) would hardly be possible. In addition, this work was sponsored, both financially and through numerous applications and case studies, by GM, Ford, and Chrysler. Their contribution is impossible to overestimate.
